Woburn, MA, Aug. 20, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- iSpecimen, a provider of human biospecimens, recently completed an international cancer research project involving hundreds of cancer blood specimens, with the samples shipped within three weeks of receiving the purchase order.

The project involved the coordination of large-scale biospecimen sourcing and fulfillment on an accelerated timeline. Through its network of healthcare and research partners, iSpecimen coordinated the sourcing and collection of the required specimens and managed international fulfillment to meet the project's timeline.

iSpecimen maintains a global and domestic network of healthcare institutions, laboratories, biobanks, and research partners that supports the sourcing of specialized cancer specimens, including formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) and flash-frozen tissue.

The successful completion of the project reflects iSpecimen's focus on efficient biospecimen sourcing and fulfillment in response to a large, time-sensitive research request. Ms. Field, iSpecimen’s Chief Executive Officer, commented: "Every week a researcher spends waiting on specimens is a week that discovery is on hold. Delivering hundreds of cancer specimens internationally within three weeks of receiving the purchase order reflects the network we've built and the team that runs it — and it can help our customers keep their research moving."
